Anyone have contractions you could feel in your hips??

talanswife · January 2012

So I started having contractions about 2:30 this a.m. The rest of the night into today I have continued to have at least one an hour. They are always in my lower back and radiate into my hip/upper thigh area and make me feel like I need to go to the bathroom. They are lasting about a minute or two a piece and are really painful. So this a.m. when they started I was thinking today was the day.... well fast forward through a really uncomfortable day at work to now, I am still only having them two maybe three times an hour now, no big increase in frequency. I haven't had any significant pain in my stomach, it does tighten a little with the back pain but it is almost all centered in my back and hips. I have heard of people having back labor, has anyone else had this horrible cramping in their hips/thighs with it? I assume these are contractions, they are time able... I really hope it is, work does not sound appealing tomorrow

This is exactly what I'm feeling except for it is in my back, my hips and pelvis and my lower abdomen. They last for two minutes, come every half hour to hour and are very painful. They've been going on since Mon night so three days straight now. It's pretty painful. I haven't gotten much if any sleep.

You really want to know?

My first labour was back labour. I didn't realize you could have hip labour until Tuesday..... it wasn't as bad as back labour, but when I hit transition all I could do was scream ow while my husband massaged my hips like CRAZY. Like if he stopped I would yell at him.... good luck!
